Three-point flanged optic piercing intrascleral fixation of multifocal intraocular lenses.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To evaluate the feasibility of a three-point flanged optic piercing intrascleral fixation technique for replacing a dislocated multifocal intraocular lens (IOL).

Design

Retrospective cross-sectional study.

Methods

In total, 13 eyes from 13 patients with a dislocated single-piece C-loop or double C-loop diffractive multifocal IOL were enrolled to undergo dislocated multifocal IOL replacement through three-point flanged optic piercing 120 degrees apart intrascleral fixation using 7-0 polypropylene sutures at 2.5 mm posterior to the limbus. Preoperative and postoperative uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA), postoperative uncorrected intermediate visual acuity (UIVA) at 66 cm, uncorrected near visual acuity (UNVA) at 40 cm, residual refractive errors, and th
